Answer
Six trains
Solution
The train of the same speed passing each other every five minutes comes to that passing each other every ten minutes when one stops.
It means the train arrives at A station every ten minutes.
Therefore we can find the number of trains that arrive at the A station in one hour is 60/10 = 6 trains.
